Duck


Some people came to inform Rabbi Chayim Halberstam of Tzanz that the wife of a recipient of charity was seen buying expensive duck meat.

“I am much obliged for you having told me,” said Rav Chayim.  “I had thought that this man’s wife was able to manage with a small amount of money.  Now that I know that she requires duck meat, I’ll have to increase the weekly stipend of that family.” ~ Haadmor Mitzanz as quoted by R’ Zelig Pliskin
